I probably should ask him what songs he could suggest but up till now it was working really well with my daughter bringing the songs she knows/likes and working together with the teacher to improve it etc. Thank you for the Seussical idea, we will look into it. I even think we might have the music f...

I'm looking for suggestions of songs to sing for my 9 yo. Her singing teacher asks us to bring the music and we've run out of ideas. She's done quite a few already from the big musicals eg chitty, SoM, Mary poppins, Wizard of Oz etc Any suggestions of things perhaps less known would be welcome. Than...

I personally would try and speak to your agent and ask to have castings as late in the day as possible, usually if they are for commercials or films they could try and accommodate but obv for something like MT it's often an early casting so that wouldn't be possible. I think dealing with the school ...

If you follow different agencies on social media, they would often post if one of their kids gets confirmed for the same job so it would give you an idea of where it's going for your child. HTH and good luck!

Thank you Catkat_0 and francescasmum. Great advice, much appreciated.

Hi, I was just wondering where the best place to buy discounted West End tickets would be?

Young Fiona/teenage Fiona from Shrek?

I was wondering, are there any drama schools (that offer musical theatre classes) for younger kids (say 8+) that audition kids before they take them on? My friend from eastern europe was telling me that they don't accept all children there as they want to have a certain standard in the schools. I th...

Huge goodluck to your daughter sophiesocks. A fab opportunity

Great show! When this was on tour about 4 years ago now, they had at least two Annies, at the moment it looks as if they've only got the one, unless they have more cast already but used only one for photos? and in the last tour the other orphans were cast locally, not sure how they are going to do i...

Hi, my son just changed his piano teacher due to relocation, and the new teacher suggested he uses Trinity music books rather than ABRSM, he's done ABRSM exams before but we are not familiar with Trinity. Could someone tell me what the difference is (if any) please. I know this teacher also enters k...

thank you very much everyone, I will pass it on. Seems like most of them are London based which is what I thought must be the case

Hi,
A friend is moving to the UK from abroad and was wondering about full time drama schools for her son. I could only think of two (Sylvia Young & redroofs). What are some others across the country as she's quite flexible re the location. Needs to be age 10 plus. thanks
